Magnus Chase and the Gods of Asgard, Book 2 The Hammer of Thor (The Special Limited Edition)
Magnus Chase and the Gods of Asgard, Book 2 The Hammer of Thor (The Special Limited Edition) | Rick Riordan
Thor's hammer is missing again. The thunder god has a disturbing habit of misplacing his weapon--the mightiest force in the Nine Worlds. But this time the hammer isn't just lost, it has fallen into enemy hands. If Magnus Chase and his friends can't retrieve the hammer quickly, the mortal worlds will be defenseless against an onslaught of giants. Ragnarok will begin. The Nine Worlds will burn. Unfortunately, the only person who can broker a deal for the hammer's return is the gods' worst enemy, Loki--and the price he wants is very high.

3✨ Not the typical Riordan book. It does still have adventure, danger, and challenges. However, this one seems to focus more on the understanding of the Muslim faith and gender fluidity. The final conclusion I hope has more action in it.

I‘m always glad to read more Riordan! Magnus is a lot of fun to read from, and his adventures are pretty crazy. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ #bookspin

I swear Uncle Riordan gets better with each book! This one was just as amazing as the first book. Loved every moment of this book and all the characters and struggles. And can I just say that Alex is amazing? Absolutely in love with this book.

Norse mythology is so weird. And also entertaining.

I really want the main characters of the next book to be Otis and Marvin.

I have always loved the stories of gods and goddesses, but Riordan is incredibly at making these ancient stories flow effortlessly into modern life! Not only did he pull it off again, but also incorporated some other really neat yet tricky elements to this story. I love how he handled everything! Such a fun book!

1. Print, ebooks, and audio.
2. I borrow a lot from the library but when I buy books, I buy from Amazon mostly.
3. Yes.
4. Libby, mostly. I also use Scribd and Audible.
5. Tagged and it's actually my current audiobook. 😊

3/5 stars 🌟

This series just doesn‘t have the same charm as Percy Jackson and I am struggling to stay invested.

This book goes even deeper into Norse mythology, and is a great book.
Definitely a few twists and turns, as well as plans that don't become clear until later.
Definitely a fun read.

BookmarkTavern I think this trilogy is my favorite of his! ❤️ 5y

?"The thing about gods is you can't really slap them when they're acting stupid. They'll just slap you back and kill you."?
Not only do I love Alex's personality, I love that they actually let Rick Riordan have a genderfluid character in his story. Not only that, the book says the words transgender and genderfluid! Diversity has always been one of my favourite parts of Rick Riordan's books, so this makes me exteremely happy.

Missed my flight due to a *ridiculous* series of circumstances and am on standby for the next one. Pretty sure that work travel is cursed for me. Trying to remain calm with the aid of some solid middle grade fiction adventures. #worktrip #currentlyreading

BooknerdsLife Love this series! :) 6y
Andrea313 @BooknerdsLife I was slow to warm to it; the first book wasn't my favorite. But I am so glad I read the second two, they were so much fun! And I can't get enough of Riordan's commitment to diversity. I want all of the young people in my life to read these! 6y
BooknerdsLife @Andrea313 Same. The first book is my least favorite too even tho I love Riordan's writing & it does get better with the next two books. IKR!! I especially love the diversity in this one too. I have yet to read the Kane Chronicles tho 😅🙈 6y

I do also have some ebooks I‘ll be reading on my phone in between as well while at the gym. QOTD: What‘s next on your TBR??✨

Two and a half hours into #24in48 and I‘ve finally finished this one. I wish I liked it more, especially when I loved the first book, but this one turned out to be far too preachy for my tastes, and not nearly as funny.

“The Schmuck in My Office” is fascinating, but not really something that can be read in large chunks of time. So it‘s back to Magnus, too, to break things up a little! #thehammerofthor #rickriordan #magnuschase

This #audiobook was another great addition to Riordan's Magnus Chase series. As Magnus & his friends search for Thor's missing hammer, they must go up against democratic zombies, an unlucky ring, and a giant wedding. Riordan's take on classic myths is always creative and entertaining.
